True Left

Aside from my opposition to AI altogether, I have warned specifically that present-day society is not on an ethical level anywhere near ready to develop AI safely. Even if (for the sake of argument) we insisted upon developing AI at some point, we should definitely not have begun to do so at least until we have totally eliminated racism (and for that matter all tribalism) from society. Otherwise almost guarantees that the AI (which by definition is allowed to learn by itself) will quickly learn it from society and replicate or even expand on its applications.

But when has Western civilization ever cared about making sure people are ethically ready for a new machine before inventing it?
